Thing #7 I'm All Googlie!!



So many things!! I'm frustrated about how much time this project is taking and don't think I'm going to meet my deadline. I would love to have more time to properly explore all these things.

I've set up an iGoogle page with some of the gadgets and it is really fun. I chose a designer background (see the Dolce and Gabbana theme above!) and set the tabs for subjects of interest to me and set up the windows using Places to See, Google Gram, Map Search, Fortune Cookie, Clock, Weather for two locations, & several other fun items. I also set up a Google Alert for a subject I'm interested in--it works!!

I've also switched to google e-mail to see if it is easier to manage e-mails. I've opened a Calender to see if it helps with organization and intend to explore the Google Notebook for research and school work. I'm already familiar with Google Earth!
One thing I'm doing is making a 23Things Folder in my Favorites list and adding a favorite to it for every Google application so I can remember them all and explore more when I have time.
Now, I'm all Googled OUT!

I have felt the same way about wishing I had more time to properly go through all the sites. It has been fun using igoogle since I set it up and I'm glad I "discovered" it! Have a nice day!
